Right after doing your `modprobe nouveau`, run `dmesg` from the ssh connection and copy/paste. #2. All logs are stored in /var/log/syslog. Then they are archived in gz form. So you should be able to do something like `zgrep nouveau /var/log/syslog*.gz`. It may be more difficult to search through this, so I would suggest #1 first if you can.
